I have my new hd in, working fine. Now what i want to do is x-fer the OS and all my files to the NEW hd, and have that be the primary drive, and have my 80GB old HD as the secondary.. whats the easiest way to do that, and to tell the machine to boot from that H.D

Use Carbon Copy Cloner or CloneX to duplicate the contents of old drive to the new. Then use the StartUp preference pane to select the system on the new disk as the boot system.
